Help adjusting parking brake lever needed

[Amadeu Bueno]

Hello Guys,

I have a 1995 Silverado (5.7L RWD short bed sport side box) that I just changed rear shoes. I adjusted it to where I could just get the rotor on.

But now I can push the parking brake pedal all the way to the floor and it definitely will not hold the truck.

I know that it should automatically adjust, but already backup 1/2 mile tapping the brakes and fell no change to the park brake lever.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks!

The 'auto-adjusting' feature on these brakes doesn't work. You're going to have to pull the drums and play with the star wheels until they fit right.
